On October 5, 2026, Financial News reported that RPC had opened an insurance-focused New York office led by Scott Schechter, with an initial focus on financial lines, cyber and warranty-and-indemnity claims. The report said the office would expand with client demand and linked the move to increasingly complex US exposures among global insurance clients. For BD leaders, the disciplined feature is the narrow client-and-matter thesis rather than the office opening itself: geography follows a defined demand signal and a named capability. Firms evaluating expansion should use client portfolios, referral flows and matter data to establish the same evidence before committing to scale.
